1 / 24The Cott At Cragmill
Easington, Northumberland
A three bedroom single storey cottage for six near Bamburgh with a bathroom for every bedroom, an enclosed garden and a fenced balcony, one dog welcome.
Somebody has fenced the balcony. It comes off the lounge through French doors, and it means a dog goes out without anybody leaving their chair. The Cott at Cragmill is a dog friendly single storey cottage for six behind Bamburgh, one small or medium dog allowed, with a large enclosed garden below the balcony and a wood burner in the room the doors belong to.
Every one of the three bedrooms has a bathroom attached, which settles most of what six people find to disagree about. Two doubles and a twin, all on the same floor as the kitchen and the lounge, so there is not a step in the building for a dog to think about. The lounge looks over fields to the water, and the kitchen keeps its dining table under the window.
Half past eight, and the burner has been going long enough that the balcony doors are open anyway. The dog is out there, front paws over the edge of the boards, watching a field where something is moving. Somebody is washing up with Budle Bay going dark in front of them. The other five are arguing over which of the three bathrooms is best, which is a better argument than most houses offer.
Cragmill is named for the crag behind it, a face of dark whinstone cut back for road stone and quiet above the lane now. The hamlet sits on farmland between the sea at Bamburgh and the mudflats at Budle, and the field paths across it join the two, which puts a dog on one coast and back from the other before lunch. Bamburgh's beach is 4 miles by road and less across the fields.

Book with holidaycottages.co.ukFrequently Asked Questions
Is The Cott At Cragmill dog friendly?
Yes, The Cott at Cragmill welcomes dogs. The single storey layout means no stairs to navigate, and outside there's both a large enclosed garden and a fenced balcony off the lounge, so your dog has secure space to roam without you having to hover.
Are dogs allowed at The Cott At Cragmill year round?
The listing doesn't specify any seasonal restrictions on dogs, so it's worth contacting the property directly to confirm availability for your dates. Given the cottage's setup — wood burner, enclosed garden, and field paths right on the doorstep — it feels well suited to year-round visits.
What should I know before visiting The Cott At Cragmill with my dog?
The cottage accepts one small or medium dog, so it's not the right fit if you're travelling with a larger breed or more than one dog. On the plus side, the single storey layout is completely step-free, and the hamlet sits between Bamburgh's beach and Budle Bay's mudflats, with field paths connecting the two — plenty of good walking right from the door.
